David Warner IPL 2025 Mega Auction: While on one hand a lot of money is being showered on Indian players in the mega auction being held for IPL 2025, on the other hand the teams are showing very little interest in foreign players. Compared to Indian players, foreign players are getting less money in the mega auction. However, everyone was surprised during the auction when captain David Warner, who made Sunrisers Hyderabad the champion in 2016, remained unsold. No team showed any interest in buying Warner. The former opener of Kangaroo team had kept his base price at Rs 2 crore in the mega auction.

Warner remained unsold

No bid could be placed on the name of David Warner in the mega auction of IPL 2025. No team made any bid to buy Warner. Warner played for Delhi Capitals in IPL 2024. However, Warner's performance was not anything special and he could score only 168 runs in 8 matches. Only one fifty came out of Warner's bat in the entire season. Along with this, Warner has also said goodbye to international cricket. This is the reason why no team showed interest in taking Warner in the mega auction. However, every franchise will have a chance to include Warner in the team even on the second day of the auction.
